Black Swan 09030 Liquid Drain Opener 1 Qt Sodium Hydroxide

Product Description

The BLACK SWAN 09030 is a liquid drain opener formulated with sodium hydroxide for clearing blocked drain pipes in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. Sodium hydroxide is a caustic alkaline compound that reacts with organic material — grease, hair, soap buildup — to break down clogs and restore flow. This product ships as a ready-to-use liquid in a 1-quart bottle, requiring no mixing or dilution before application. It is unscented and designed for direct application into a drain line. Licensed plumbers and drain service technicians are the primary users of this type of chemical drain opener.

This drain opener is suited for use in standard drain pipe applications including sink, tub, and floor drain lines where organic blockages are present. The 1-quart single-use bottle format is appropriate for service calls where a measured, contained chemical treatment is needed. It is not formulated for grease-trap or septic system use unless the system manufacturer permits caustic cleaners. Always verify pipe material compatibility before application, particularly with older cast iron or plastic drain lines.

Installation Notes

Application of chemical drain openers should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified drain technician following local plumbing codes. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment including chemical-resistant gloves and eye protection when handling sodium hydroxide products. Do not mix with other drain chemicals, acids, or bleach-based products, as dangerous reactions can occur. Follow the product label directions for contact time and flush volume before returning the drain to service.
